last update Last Updated: 2025-01-30 23:40:11

🥀 MELONIE'S POV 🥀

I sat on the edge of my bed; my hands clenched into fists as I waited for the news. My mind was racing with tons of things that could go wrong, and my heart was pounding in my chest like a drum.

I couldn't shake the feeling of dread that had been building up inside me for a while. The outcome of this moment would determine the course of the future.

Who found Ashera? Arwan or Alastor? The thought sent a wave of anxiety crashing over me, making my skin crawl and my breath catches in my throat.

As I waited, my mind replayed every possible scenario, each one more disastrous than the last.

My emotions were a mix of fear and worry, making it hard to think straight.

The room around me seemed to fade away, leaving only the sound of my own ragged breathing.

And then, suddenly, the silence was broken, Arwan appeared in my room with the help of a portal.

“What are you doing here?” I voiced in fear, gasping. “If Alastor finds you here, you will be smoked and chopped into cubes

    🥀 ARWAN'S POV 🥀There was chaos of fear in the building. I watched as everyone dragged their feet on the ground worriedly, too scared to sit, breathe, or even blink.It felt like trouble was coming and it was coming really fast.“Alastor has Ashera,” Lavanya stated, “Doesn't that mean the end for us?”Clara jingled her head, “We are not dead yet, so there's still hope.”“When would we not be dead?” Othello cried out. “If he has Ashera, then he's definitely going to come for us.”“We shouldn't have gotten there so late,” Clara blurted out.“Who's fault, is it?” Lavanya attacked, “If only you hadn't gone for water.”“Didn't you go with me?” Clara stood in defence.Lavanya pouted, “I went because you went, so it's your fault.”My heart was racing like a jackhammer, pounding against my ribcage with a ferocity that left me breathless. Fear had taken hold of me, its icy grip wrapping around my throat like a vice.Every thought, every emotion, was consumed by the terror that had taken up r

    🥀 MELONIE'S POV 🥀The Loud sound of things shattering got me on edge, I was unable to sleep because I was worried about who Ashera was with.But Alastor, rather than being worried, I'd say he's angry and disappointed about the turn of events.I went towards his room, I stood frozen in the hallway, my heart pounding in my chest as I gazed at the door in front of me. It was just a simple door, made of plain wood and adorned with a plain metal doorknob. But to me, it seemed like a portal to a nightmare world, a gateway to unspeakable terrors.I had been putting off entering his room for what felt like an eternity. I had been trying to work up the courage to push open the door and step inside, but my fear had been holding me back.I took a deep breath and tried to shake off the fear that was gripping me. I told myself that I was being ridiculous and that there was nothing to be afraid of. But the fear lingered, refusing to be extinguished.I slowly reached out and grasped the doorknob,

    🥀 ARWAN'S POV 🥀We were yet to point out who exactly had Ashera and it made us so restless that we all sat with pale faces, breathing heavily and staring into the void.“Seriously, I'm tired of all this,” Lavanya complained, “Why do we have to keep guessing who Ashera is with? Can't the nigga come out and say, “Hey I have Ashera” so we would at least know what we are doing.”“Do you always talk this much?” Dracula asked with a smirk on his face.“Yes, you?” I retorted, “Do you always point everything out?”Ignoring them, I stood up and walked to the window, “Melonie, talk to me, what's going on?” I murmured, biting my fingers.“Any words from Melonie yet?” Bruno asked, walking closer.“No, not even a hi,” I responded.Bruno tapped my shoulder, “She'll say something soon.”Just then, Melonie's thoughts came in, “That stupid witch has Ashera, get it from her before Alastor, he's going in search of her tomorrow, I'll try to hold him down for a while.”“The witch has Ashera?” I announce

    🥀 MELONIE'S POV 🥀Morning came too quickly; I would have preferred darkness lasted some more time.I was still confused about how I was going to track Alastor down, but I knew I needed to do it, at least to give Arwan and the gang some more time.If Alastor gets to the witch before them, she's as good as dead and so are the others, my dear family would be dead too.I am the light and Alastor is the darkness, makes more sense now that I've met him.He kills for entirely no reason but fun, the grin on his face and happiness in his eyes whenever he talks about someone he killed brutally was concerning, what a psychopath.Regardless, there's this love snooping around in my heart for him.Have you ever loved a monster? You'd wish all day and night that you could just deliver him from all the crazy demons camping inside him.Even though it's not possible, the hope of Alastor turning good depends on his death, he'll only be harmless when he's dead.Cruel, isn't it? I thought so too.My mot

But Dracula? That dude with a flat face?He wasn't totally wrong, I seemed to be enjoying it, who told him to be warm?Fucking werewolf.“Lavanya!” Arwan screamed for the third time to grasp my attention. “Where the hell did you go?”“To bed… I mean – I'm right here,” I stammered.“We are going to the witch now, call everyone,” Arwan declared.“Huh! Me? Why?” I asked in refusal.Arwan gawked at me, “Because you are the only one here.”I jingled my head drastically, “No I'm not, Bruno's ass is also here. Send him instead.”“I have something to discuss with Bruno,” Arwan responded, “Alpha Vargus and the others would be here on their own, Call Dracula.”Dracula? The exact person I wanted to shoot into another planet a few minutes ago?“N

That should be enough time for Arwan.I wasn't totally comfortable, yet… I wasn't uncomfortable.He was cold, brutal… yet he was warm and sweet.“Are you alright? Want to get up for a while?” He nibbled on my ears.I jingled my head, “I'm fine, I just…”“Just what?” He whispered.I raised my head to look at him, “Want to remain like this… with you.”His eyes darkened, I could feel the sadness he was trying hard to hide, “I know you are trying to hold me down Melonie,” Alastor blurted out, “You are stopping me from getting to the Witch… because of your boyfriend, Arwan; you want him to get the sword before me.”I was speechless, no. I was traumatized and unable to speak.How did he…?What if he gets Angry and kills me for deceiving him?Now everything is messed up, he knows I'm lying.“How did you…?

I could feel my heart pounding in my chest, my pulse quickening with every passing moment.I closed my eyes, trying to shut out the distractions around me. I focused on my breath, feeling the sensation of the air moving in and out of my body.“Don't suppress it,” Arwan's voice rang out, “Hit me and get over with it.”“Arwan,” Bruno warned.“You want me to hit you?” I asked and scoffed, “No, it's much better if your conscience judges you forever.”“This is not the problem here,” Lavanya yelled, “There's a wild beast out there searching for us like food, we can't afford to be arguing.”“Says someone that would rather argue than eat,” Clara fired back.“So how do we get Ashera from them?” Bruno asked.“I don't think we can,” I announced, “Let them fight it out, then… we'd face whoever

There's a whole lot of better things you could wish for.”I nodded my head, my face turning pale and serious. " Aside from the wish, please, if there's a way… tell me.”“There is indeed a way,” the Angel uttered. “Stab him with Ashera's sword, then Alastor would die. Of course, you would feel the pain for a while… then everything would be fine. But if you are unable to contain the pain,

    🥀 CLARA'S POV 🥀What a lonely morning after being surrounded by couples all night.Bruno and Othello, Dracula and Lavanya, both couples heartlessly doing rubbish.My eyes hurt from rolling them all night as soon as I see them flirt and my lips hurt from pouting as soon as I see them kiss.I was standing alone in between two couples and it was so frustrating.I got up from bed, not like I got any sleep.As I sat in the quiet stillness of the morning, my mind began to wander to Arlo. Memories of our time together flooded my thoughts, and I couldn't help but smile.I remembered the way he used to make me laugh, the way his eyes would sparkle with mischief when he was teasing me. I remembered the way he would hold my hand, his fingers intertwined with mine in a gentle, loving grasp.As I sat there, lost in thought, I could almost feel his presence around me. I could smell him, and hear the sound of his voice whispering in my ear. It was as if he was right here with me, and my heart swel

    🥀 LAVANYA'S POV 🥀The sky above was a brilliant blue, not a cloud in sight. The sun shone brightly, casting a warm glow over the landscape. A gentle breeze rustled through the trees, carrying the sweet scent of blooming flowers.The air was crisp and clean, with a hint of freshness that invigorated the senses. The temperature was just right, neither too hot nor too cold, making it perfect for outdoor activities.As I stepped outside, I felt a sense of joy and upliftment wash over me. The clear sky and good weather seemed to lift my spirits, filling me with a sense of possibility and promise.The world seemed to come alive on days like this, with every colour appearing more vibrant, every sound clearer, and every sensation more intense. It was as if the good weather had awakened a sense of wonder and magic in the world.I took a deep breath, feeling the fresh air fill my lungs, and gazed up at the clear blue sky.

    🥀 MELONIE'S POV 🥀With a bright light that almost left us blind, Our Alpha Vargus disappeared, alongside Angel Gabriel.Leaving us, broken and lonely.Honestly, I wanted to close my eyes and never wake up, because just when we were almost at the end, things became unbearable.We lost a lot of people on this journey, and I feel like I'm the one to blame.If only I hadn't walked into this world, or maybe if I wasn't too stubborn and had not gone in search of my father if only I hadn't resurrected Arwan or if I hadn't gotten attached to Alastor and killed him when I had the chance rather than praying for a change, things wouldn't have graduated into this.We were mourning too many people, because of me.I walked closer to Clara who crumbled underneath a table weeping.“Clara,” I called softly.“Get away from me,” she retorted, breathing heavily.She hasn't tasted food or water for a while, and I was starting to think she might probably die before Arlo returns.“Arlo would be here soon,

I might want Arlo alive but I don’t want you dead.”“Are you sure about that?” I asked sadly, “Clara, are you sure you mind me dying for Arlo to come back to life? I never existed to you.”“But that doesn't mean I want you dead,” she cried out, slamming her eyes shut as tears poured, “I might have been too occupied with Arlo finally being with me but that doesn't mean I don't notice that you are around Vargus.”“You have 10 seconds to change your mind, if not the process would begin.” Angel Gabriel declared.I looked back at him with tears-fille

I was just not in the mood for anything.It was day two since what happened to Arwan and it was still so fresh, I should have been angry and filled with energy for revenge but I was weak and lonely, extremely tired of fighting.Soon I began to hear voices but I was determined to not leave the room or fight.It started as a warning that something was happening, and soon it increased.Rather than going out to check, I covered my ears to reduce the noise.I heard Othello screaming and desperately calling Bruno’s name, I heard Lavanya weeping while screaming Dracula’s name, I heard Alpha Vargus’s yells and finally, I heard Clara weeping.“I’m tired of fighting,” I murmured cuddling myself tightly.I heard a loud bang on my door, “Melonie…” Clara screamed, “You have to help us, Alastor is here for Ashera.”I jingled my head, “No, I won’t fight anymore,” I whispered to m

    🥀 OTHELLO’S POV 🥀I was restless. Ever since Arwan became a god, I realized things could change at any moment. Anyone could just fall and die, and nobody knew when.The whole fight taught me, that anything can happen anytime, especially when you least expected it. Tragedy doesn’t knock.How I wish I could hide everyone I love in an underground somewhere until all these tragedies pass away. But sometimes, there’s nowhere to hide in this spaceless world.Just like when we lost everyone in our realm, Mrs. Hunter died, when Queen Manon died… I can’t just shake off the feeling that I might be next or maybe even worse, my lover.

    🥀 MELONIE'S POV 🥀We sat in the hall, surrounded by the familiar comforts of home, but the atmosphere was heavy with sadness. Every single member of the family was struggling to come to terms with whatever damn scene was going on.Bruno's eyes cast downward, his shoulders slumped in defeat. Othello sat beside him, his eyes red from crying. He had been struggling to accept that Arwan was now a dragon, a god.Arlo and Clara sat on the floor, their faces sombre. Our usual warmth and laughter were replaced with an uncomfortable silence. No one knew how to lift the gloom that had settled over us. We all felt lost and alone, each struggling to cope with our sorrows.As the evening wore on, the sadness seemed to deepen, filling every corner of the room.I was a shadow of myself, even my shadow was hopeless. For a fact, I was far more dead than the Arwan in question. My eyes, red and puffy from the emotional release, felt heavy and tired.The sobs that had wracked my body had finally sub

The air was alive with electricity, and the wind howled with a voice that was both fierce and beautiful. It whipped his hair into a frenzy; his clothes were torn and buffeted, threatening to rip from his body at any moment.Suddenly, a brilliant flash of lightning illuminated the sky, the sound that followed was like nothing else in nature, another deafening, earth-shaking crash of thunder that seemed to shake the very foundations of the earth.Arwan’s body began
